Jaimal Yogis - The Fear Project

Tuesday, January 8, 2013 - 6:30pm

Jaimal Yogis reads from The Fear Project ($24.99). Who among us hasn’t been paralyzed by fear? From “small” fears like public speaking to “big” fears such as death, fear is what often holds us back from reaching our full potential. In his new book, journalist and surfer Jaimal Yogis sets out to confront his fears and to find out whether there may actually be benefits to this often crippling emotional state.

Jaimal Yogis is an award-winning journalist who has written for ESPN Magazine, The Washington Post, The Surfers Journal, The Chicago Tribune, AFAR, San Francisco Magazine and many others. His critically acclaimed first book, Saltwater Buddha, is currently being adapted into a film. Jaimal is an avid surfer and lives in San Francisco with his wife and son.

An epic adventure full of incredible characters, death-defying athletic achievement, and bleeding edge science, THE FEAR PROJECT began with one question: how can we overcome our fears to reach our full potential?
